BROWN , Representative Office Telephone No. 744 DIVISION COURT HELD YESTERDAY AT BOWHANVILLE T] Numerous Cases Heard By Judge O'Connor in ' Long Sesgion His Honour L. O'Connor; county. judge of Cobourg, held. divi- sion court, here yesterday and had ~almost, five straight hours of sit- ting on the numerous cases that were slated for hearing. Appeals against business assessment by the Dominion Organ and Piano Com- pany, and A H. Moore's appeal against an assessment of $6000 on the Adams property on Concession street were the first heard in the elerk's office, where the town was represented by W. Ross Strike, bar- rister. Mr. J. W. Alexander pres ented his case for appeal against the business assesment of the Dom. Organ & Piano Co., on the grounds that there was mo business and all they were doing was trying to liqui- date that stock was on hand. He told the court that there had been 24 mortalities in his line within the past ten years and there were only four left. Also that the assessment on the property had been the same for forty years and due allowance should have been made for depre- ciation. Decision was reserved. Mr. A. H. Moore in his appeal against an assessment of $6,000, was represented by L. C, Mason, barrister. By comparison with other properties, by location, by unsaleability, and amount of re- paii's needed, the appealant sought to show the property was assessed too high. The town's representa- tive, by comparison to other prop- erties also sought to prove that the property was not assessed to high. 2 His honor said he would have to | visit these properties and make a summary before deciding, Next Monday, July 11th, he will visit the places mentioned and confer with | counsels and make a decision. The case of Mrs. Oke and Wood was_ adjourned court. > Mr Dr. Davidson, Toronto, represented by W. F.

The plaintiff was given judgment with costs but defendant has the right to produce the cancelled cheque and present it to thé Court Clerk: for verification and credit. Dispute Over Rent W. J. Martin and Charles Coyle, plaintiff and defendant, although good friends, had a misunderstand- ing. Mr. Martin claimed $13 back rent and Mr, Coyle counter- claimed for 40 hours work at 25¢ an hour and $10 for looking after Martin's bowling alley and agency for Cleaners. There had been no agreement as to Coyle's work, but in regards to looking after the business, Mr, Martin showed the agreement written in the ledger that Mr. Coyle was to look after bowling and agency, and in return Coyle had the privilege of running a shoe shine stand and a reduction in rent. Martin got judgment with costs, Rice & Company's claim of $4.75 against Walter Cochrane was dis- missed with costs. Lumber Deals Griffei Lumber Co., represented by R. J. Harris, Port Perry, got judgment against C. Fetherston for $04.10, but defendant may sue for his counter claim within fourteen days, This is for $1000 for dama- ges. Griffen Lumber Co. brought ac- tion for $23.35 against Mrs. Landon for material used' in erecting a sun porch at cottage at Caesarea. The material had been ordered by Mr. Humpage and paid for by him, but after payment an error was dis- covered in the account and Griffen sought balance of account. As Humpage was not present the par ties got together and the defendant through her counsel Mr. Hazzard, of Toronto, agreed to pay half of account and court costs, each to pay their own witnesses. The judgment amounted to $13.48, Several judgment summong was dealt with before the court closed.

Now he claims his theory has«been dem- onstrated hy the movement of a sealed bottle which has travelled 100° miles in 15 days. Having invited a friend to view the place, Mr. Cowan was at Holyrood Pond on June 14, when one of the bottles was found. It was the first morning after their arrival, and they were watching fishermen at work when Mr. Cowan saw a hottle floating in one corner of the "pond." Tt had heen caught in a cod-trap. On opening it he found records of the biaological station and l= held it out to his friend as prac- tical proof of the current arifi and another link in his theory. Examination showed that the bot tle had been dropped overboard three miles east. of Bay Bulls by members of the hiological sta- tion gtaff, on May 30. That gives it 15 days to travel 100 miles n- to the pond.

Throughout the past 63 years; with their successive booms and depressions, The Royal Bank of Canada has made steady progress to established strength and has long been recognized as one of the great banks of the world. It serves all Canada. The ~~ ROYAL BANK JF CANADA CAPITAL $35,000,000 - RESERVES $39,1 55,106 - ASSETS OVER $750,000,000 St. Johns', Nfld, -- Russian fish are sold on the markets of Greece, and unless Newfoundland fishermen adopt modern business methods and pool their catches, they are going to lose their for- eign trade, according to Sir W. F. Coaker, veteran founder of the Fishermen's Protective Un- ion, who recently returned from a trip to Europe. Sir William has retired from active political life but he still retains his nterests in fisheries. 1t was for the purpose of inves- tigating codfish market condi- tions that he went to Greece af- ter visiting Great Britain, France, Switzerland, Italy and Jugoslavia. "The cutting of prices hy com- petition of outside brokers of- fering small shipments of New- foundland Labrador fish must stop," he said om his return. "She will have to adopt business methods and control not only cure, but supply and shipments. In other words, she will have to pool her catch and have it handl- ed on a regular business basis. { This can be done with Labrador fish much more easily than ghore fish However, I am in a posi- | tion to state that sales of 100,- 000 to 150,000 of Labrador No 1 cure can be made in Greece by the trade at prices fixed in ac: cordance with Tceland competi- tion, to he shipped in full cargo | Promthee something | prac- | hu- | | lots of 20,000 quintals for the | three fish centres of Greece, pro- { vided no other fish is sold or of- | fered to Greece from Newfoupd- {land."' Sir William met several large buyers of codfish at Piraeus and Newfoundlanders Face Competition From Russia they told him it was useless to send Labrador fish there this season unless it was of the very best quality, Iceland wet fish were on sale n all the markets, and the buyers pointed to its cleanliness of face and back, the absence of black spots on the face, the splitting and uniform size. In this district the buyers had handled 20,000 quntals of Russian fish in 1931. They were not anxious to handie' it and would continue to do 89 only jn case Iceland, French and New- foundland fish was much higher in price. = They said the lceland fish looked the best but the Lab- rador product tasted the best. The Soviet government will sell to only one buyer in a city and it refuses to sell to any oth- ers in that particular territory. "That is the 'ideal way to sell fish--as it cut out competition and price cutting, and a buver is safe in purchasing by contract under such an arrangement," one prominent buyer told Sir William. At Patras the buyers offered to co-operate with others in Piraeus to enter into a contract to take 100,000 quintals of Labrador fish from the Newfoundland fisher- men, provided no other fish was shipped to Greece from New- foundland. "This would require pobling Labrador fish in Newfoundland," said Sir William, 'something 1 have advocated for vears, and T feel sure pooling will have to come in Newfoundland if obtain the best possible cure, se- cure the best possible values and dispense with over-stocking." | Seek To Salvage Submarine Sunk With Sixty Men (By Canadian Press) Cherhourg, France, July 8.--- lalvage vessels hovering above the spot where the submarine went down yesterday, reported air bubbles on the sur- | face this afternoon.

On August 23, 1832 Joseph Livesey, a vendor of cheese, invited into his shop in Preston, a friend named John King, and the two men discussed what they re- warded as the evils of drink. In thosa days men drank 16 or 17 pints of beer a day, and even children in numerous. instances imbibed *spic- ed ale and wine. The outcome of the conversation between Livesey and King was that they both signed a pledge to abstain from intoxicating liquor, A few davs later they were joined by five other men, wlio gave their names to the pledge at a meeting at the Pres- ton Cockpit, thus constituting the Seven Men of Preston. So start- ed the total abstinence movement, the centenary of which is being celebrated this vear, The progress of the movement has been enormous. Adult total ab- stainers alone now number many millions in Great Britain, and there arc, of course, in addition, the hun- dreds of thousands of children en. rolled in Bands of Hope and other juvenile temperance organizations, The strength of the movement Palace recently, nldren representing temperance or.ant s marched in procession: a choir i 5.000 and seven| M.'s and lead- ing members of the medical profes- ion testified their belie in the inciples of total abstinence, Woman, gramatically speak- is not a part of speech; she's simply the whole oration, -- De- troit News, when 10000 cl 13 different tion of voices sang.
